NASCAR
I have become a NASCAR fan.
I'm a NY suburbanite transplanted to the Rocky Mountain region. My 6yo son loved the movie CARS. This led to collecting the diecast models
which led to us watching last year's Daytona 500 race on television, and an amazing, wild finish.
Now, I find myself watching races nearly every weekend, rooting for my favorites (18/42/5) and following the news via text messages. What I thought was just a "redneck" thing, Is actually a major corporate sponsorship machine. Just look at the sponsors splashed across every car, driver, on the screen, during the commercial breaks, and on & on.
The crashes don't even mean much to me. I'm amazed how well these drivers handle these machines at 180-200mph
OK, call me a fan.
